  • ticking..............

  • whats the zero case is it tru?

  • 11 people were scared shitless when they watched this

  • Great job on video, keep up the good work :)

  • Trent is a Prophet...

  • 2:38 welcome to the United Soviet States of America.

  • Very good

  • How the hell is Trent going to present this in the mini series?

    Can't wait :D

  • so is this your video or is this the real video?

  • I'm still alive, kewl

  • @lolisbol don't get excited ,you're still on our list :-)

  • i think im retarded. everytime i use youtube to listen to a nin song im already feeling good and i come here to put me in that higher fuck the world space. you know that point of the party where it transitions from you partying with people to you just being so lost in the high and acting out from your own mind and instinct? everything that happens from there on feels like a new twist in a movie or somethin lol. im just sayin quit bitchin and breakin shit down, just listen to the music.

  • Nice use of Pink Floyd's 'The Wall'.

  • @RusX5Z If you knew NIN and listen to the lyrics you would understand that, this song does not suck.

  • This song sucks. Old school NIN is waaaay better.

  • @RussX5Z It was a concept album. Trent Reznor is not capable of having sucky songs.

  • @Fire1067 yeah he is, his second album sucked, on purpose. He made that album as fast as possible to get off his record label ASAP and you can tell because it sucks.

  • @MikeyRGuitar You're telling me Wish, Gave Up, Last, Happiness In Slavery, and Suck were bad songs? They were all on the Broken EP. I feel sorry for you.

  • @Fire1067 not my judgement, Trent talks about how he put zero effort and just tried to put out an album. his words man, not mine

  • @MikeyRGuitar If he thought those songs from the Broken Era sucked why exactly would he play them at concerts some 20 years later?

  • @Fire1067 burn's pretty mediocre off the press, but he changed it for live performances and it is far superior live.

  • nwo

  • this video was interesting until the footage of the dog and person getting shot played. Tasteless and sickening.

  • 2:17 is that... THE PRESENCE?

  • nine inch nails is the truth

  • You kids are cracking me up! Trent Reznor makes good music but he's absolutely ignorant to world affairs and politics. There was a time, long ago, that Trent promised never to inject politics into his music as no musician should. He couldn't help himself since his career was on a downward "spiral." Now he's causing children on youtube to make pretentious comments about capitalism and America as if any of you are enlightened by anything other than your x-box and laptop! Hilarious!

  • @hatfisc That's pretty pompous of you to presume on every stranger here and the defensibility of their views before they've even presented them. =/ Yeah most of these probably are younger people and most people are stupid.. but what's with all the negativity? Reznor can't evolve as an artist? People can't share and grow in their understanding?

  • @JaysThoughts I don't know what you mean by defending views before they present them. Their views are posted on this video and they wouldn't have to defend anything until they are questioned. That's where I came in. We were all young once and thought it was cool to question government and pretend to have a stance against the "man." That's all well and good but kids do grow up and realize that there are more important things in life than being motivated to find faults with their government.

  • @hatfisc I do see your point. With age comes a lot of putting in perspective. But I'm an adult and honestly in this day and age I can think of few more important things than accountability for those in power or the vigilance necessary to maintain civil liberties. Maybe a part of you has to stay a little youthful and angsty to be a libertarian. hehe. But it usually consists of more thought out point of view (most world views do) than anyone is going to fit into a single youtube comment.

  • Im part of the problem XD

  • If you play this song in a spectrograph you can see gods hand... 0_o

  • Freedom is becoming anti-American.

  • @JaysThoughts no a patriot fights for his country not his government.

  • @JaysThoughts Wooow! You must have read that on the HuffPo and thought it sounded nice.

  • @hatfisc I didn't read it anywhere. It just sounded good late at night when I was cranked up on NiN..

  • I get just as cranked up on NIN I'm sure. It's easy to do. I've been hooked on what Trents been offering for over fifteen years now. His music is timeless and very consuming. Let's be honest though.America is a superpower with just all every bit of worldly influence that a nation could have. We're not perfect but hopefully we'll get over this trend of trying to marginalize what Amercia stands for.World issues are too complicated to inject them into music so people can air their dirty laundry.

  • trippy.

  • Great great great video !

  • ...what was the number? Does it still work?

  • heyyy, aint that alien thing at the beginning from year zero?

  • I seriously think in all earnest that after Obama is out of office, this probably really will happen to some degree or other.

  • Damn Trent Reznor is a genius.

  • america is dying and no one has noticed

    uncle sam on his back, lady liberty on her fucking knees

    I'll take another helping of americana please

    you The people are now The maggots

    infestation...abortion, oppression, corruption, faggots

    end stage, death throws, last sigh

    bases loaded, bottom of the 9th, bend over and kiss your ass goodbye

    america is dying and no one has noticed.

  • don't drink the water.

  • Patriotism is mental slavery.

    Free your mind- take down that flag.

    1-310-295-1040

    Call us.

  • @AndrewRaimonSavage no, the patriotism school's and the govt teaches you is the mental slavery, not the personal love and hope for this land!

  • @mrwobbleheaddeluxe

    Uncle Sam is sombodies bitch too man.

  • @traebarlow for sure. dont get me wrong.

  • @AndrewRaimonSavage it is hardly slavery if it is a choice

  • @DarkestofTimes

    Slavery is a choice. Just as freedom is another choice.

    Patriotism, religion, capitalism- they're all institutions that people choose when they grow tired of thinking freely for themselves.

    Simply because you have a choice does not make you free.

    "I would have freed a thousand more slaves, if only they knew they were slaves." Harriet Tubman

  • @AndrewRaimonSavage

    Everybody is somebodies bitch man, it's always been like that and always will be.

  • Patriotism is mental slavery.

    Free your mind- take down that flag.

  • The music starts at 0:58.

  • I am violence.

  • HL Strider!!!

  • just to get things straight too, Year Zero is a Alternate Reality created to Entertain people...with an end of the world type theme. Which it's not the first thing to do that. Oh yeah and "The Presence" in Year Zero is thought to have been seen by People taking non-existent drugs...in the Alternate Reality. But you have to admit.....it's a great song...lol

  • great song. And kool video. Especially 1:54 to 2:14

  • or let us put it this way, their is no god i know this to be true, however their are strong spiritual beings but they only have as much sway over you as u want them to. any living thing can be strong or can be weak, free or influenced. this is up to you as individuals. it does not matter were u live , what goverment is their, if u stand up that will be freedom for you. none should fear death though, for their is life after death, but none should fear life either, the goverment should fear you!

  • eventually there will be no escapes , whats that you say , they won't get you and all this is a rediculously preposterous way of thinking ,the people who believe in all this stuff are haywire in their brains you say? people need to seek help because their mentally ill and dont have their facts straight and stop living in a fantasy down in the rabbit hole you say ? and to you i say wake up because your brain dead and pull your head out of the nuclear cloud surrounding your life.

  • Does anyone know what the story is behind the battleship/explosion at 339?

  • this song is about alians not god

  • what is the number?

  • I don't understand the call in the beginning. What kind of telephone number is that?

    oh, and stefan Goodchild's mix is better than this one.

  • Listen to the x astronauts if you can not believe that et's are no joke. and Roswell was real as edgar mitchell states. 

  • fuck religion

  • the number does not work anymore

  • i was standing right there, when it came down from the sky, now picture yourself, on a sunny day at grandmas, you look over the tree line and see a disc craft coming towards you, at first it doesnt seem real, you think your watching it on tv, and before you can think anything else, this disc is right above you about 7 feet off the ground, you turn to run, but are paralyzed, pure terror, then you wake up.

  • Liberty or Death

  • isn't this song about aliens that disprove of our violent ways? and if we don't change they will destroy all of humanity

  • @demian2114 I was always thinking that it was gods or some divine source, but that's a good one too.

  • every time I look at this stuff it's like

    what you are doing i unamerican and you risk lodss of your us citizenshiship

    and im always like "What a shame I'm British"

  • Dont forget that in Ireland they have blasphemy laws..so watch what you say in those pubs, paddy.

  • Fyeah!

  • When I called the number all it said was "Mailbox does not exist"... Oh well, the song's awesome!

  • They shot his dog too....the dog was dead the second the bullets hit em...the guy was still moving a bit before the clip ended.

  • Killer!!!!!!!! : )

  • awesome video!!! Great job!

  • What the hell was that at 3:39?

    What kind of bomb was that?

  • If only more people would pay attention to the warning. I keep posting this video to my facebook and people won't even check it out...

  • holy shit he put THE WALL VID OF THE HAMMERS BAD MOTHER FUCKING ASS

  • Do you know jesus?

    Then is this the perfect song!

    God will destroy the world!

    All people, who believe to jesus will coming to the heaven...the rest in the hell....

    Our time is ticking away...

  • @STR33TTIG3R -_- I'll laugh when the end of the world comes and you're waiting for Jesus to pick you up and save you and bring you to heaven , no offense 8D

  • @STR33TTIG3R Its more like all who accept jesus as their lord ans savior will go to heaven, for even the demons believe in God, but yea your on the right track.

  • @STR33TTIG3R tell that to muslims :D and see how well that argument will go :D

  • @STR33TTIG3R

    To be as simple minded as you are would be what I'd consider ''Hell''.

    I know you're delusional so there is really no reason why I would ask the following, but I'm bored and kind of curious, so here it goes; what evidence, or at least what observation brought you to the conclusion that ''God'' will destroy the world? The only way I find that plausible is by using ''God'' as an acronym i.e.

    G = Gold

    O = Oil

    D = Drugs (pharmaceutical ones)

    However God aka Yahweh doesn't exist.

  • Does this bring to mind 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' for anyone else?

  • @revfeniandobbs thats exactly what ive thought of everytime i listen to this song... which is almost everyday...the black and white version not the one with keanu reeves

  • "Your time is tick tick ticking away" :D

    Dude. Trent is awesome. It's sad that NIN Live is discontinued. I hope he's going to still record albums though. Something about taking a break. Not to mention Twiggy (Jeordie White from Marilyn Manson) played for them live. :D 2 amazing bands share a link in the chain of talent.

  • yes, love the hammers from pink floy the wall

  • Fucking Awesome!

  • begining the first time i watched this fucked me up man.

  • great!

    5*

  • 2.34, the kid that was scared of dogs, cops shot him when he threw a jandel (thong) out, they also released one of their dogs, which inadvertantly got shot in the hail of bullets

  • where did that happen?

  • IN HIS DRUG FILLED HEAD.

  • @blairpio yea i saw that, his name was deandre brunston of compton, they shot him 81 times, so sad

  • NIN retired D: not too long ago too D: sadness is inside me.

  • WTH!!! WHY

  • they just stopped touring.trent gave up takin the show on the road.but not recording:]

  • @BlackDeath10000

    How To Destroy Angels.

  • @BlackDeath10000 are you a sad sad panda?

  • @backham96 im a sad sad saaaddd panda D:

  • @BlackDeath10000 wrong

  • @BlackDeath10000 He'll come back, he has to...

  • ya i have to admit, i was living in australia and followed the propaganda trail just before the release of the cd, including calling the number, which is sourced off a dodgy website, i was being chased by the governement for ages, till i realised that it wasnt the gov, it was just my psychotic release from the amount of pot i was smokin at the time XD

    thanks wiki :-/

    o and yea i laughed my ass off at the americas ridin first class, lmfao!

  • 2:34 wtf?!

  • very cool

  • man i love this song, it fucking rocks its also about aliens haha

  • Wait.

    The opening would be bad why?

  • The Junsui...

  • blows?

  • you blow.

  • did you make this? its good

  • Only the strong survive

  • then it'll only be you and me

  • thats ever very wrong or right

  • JUST GREAT SONG!

  • greeaaat video....I love this song. I saw a comment that said this country is going to hell.....I agree but I think its this world thats going to hell. America is just riding first class ...which is nothing to be proud about

  • SOOOO FUCKING TRUE .

  • @aintplayinAround 100% right

  • @aintplayinAround than change it, humans always stand by when they can do something, the world has suffered due to humanitys , arrogance towards all other life, as humanity blocks itself from nature, in the end humanity hurts itself, this is nothing more than a cycle, that keeps on getting more and more vicious, stop the cycle and begin to truly progress to better times, this is your choice as individuals and as a race, only humans can decide their fate.

  • @aintplayinAround if first class is the front of the train. wouldent want to sit there when it crashes.

    but the people that pull all the strings, they who will be safe when we all die. there not america .. they are the elite.. from everything.

    see it as elite co-op mode . bomb a few countries here and there whilst all it is is global genocide.

  • @aintplayinAround It's a truly awful thing. But I agree with you.

  • @aintplayinAround Exit seats are available. . . we just need to "locate them".

    :D

    Off to the camps with me. . .

  • I love the intro of this song.

  • 2012 coming soon. Stay Tuned!

  • great editing. great. almost too good. lol, my first comment ona video on here and i think its great. keep it up bro

  • why

  • 2022 is the new 1984 :o

  • WE R LIVING 1984

  • what number do you have to ring to hear all this weird shit anywy NIN rock trent is one of the best songwriters i heard wow they are one of those bands that now a days no other music acts sound anything like them

  • I thought this was the "sonic climax" of the song - pardon the term and me sounding elitist snobbish but that was the best term I could come up with.

    When I make a kick ass mix CD, this song follows "Rosetta Stoned" by Tool.

    nin: gotta love it!

  • Comment removed

  • WOOT!

  • ........

  • WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!

  • 'the wall' footage works perfectly with the song.

  • Year Zero had me going. . . I didn't know it was fictional till I found the Wikipedia page. AND I called one of the phone numbers too. . . freaked the hell out of me. HAHA

  • Im not even american and this shit trips me out haha.

  • your lucky. this country is going to hell.

  • Your country is in no better position than the US.

    Canadians that pretend that they're better off are letting their inferiority complex and quest to be better than America completely warp their percetion of reality.

  • Wait. Don't be Racist. ANYBODY can be like this...

  • Lets all go to Ireland, They don't have problems there, and theres a pub!

    what more could we ask for?

  • Hmm let's see, women, everybody knows the queen's territories are not the places to find creatures that are even close to real women....No hard feelings mate ;)

  • i vote New Zealand.

    2012? youll find me on the south island in a hammock

  • @KeyboardistXIII someone with some fucking balls pussy

  • @KeyboardistXIII lol ireland doesnt have problems? lol

  • @KeyboardistXIII LOL Ireland has no problems? IRA anyone.. I say we move to South America and start our own country.

  • @KeyboardistXIII lol srry i accidently hit thumbs down...loI was trying vote you up... agreed

  • @KeyboardistXIII They're lorded over by the UK. . . they've got lots of problems. Free them of foreign occupation and I'm sure they'll be heaven on earth . . .from everything I've seen, they;'re close to that even despite the foreign occupation by England.

  • @KeyboardistXIII Sorry to say, but what Trent is warning about with this CD is probably inevitable at this point and time, and will not just affect the USA - it will be a world dictatorship which starts in the USA, and soonafter in Europe.

  • @KeyboardistXIII good plan.

  • some guys get got shot

  • wtf is happening at 2:34?

  • hes gittn bean bagged to death (not really) by tha heat

  • Supposedly the police had fired at a robbery suspect and in the process shot their own dog. I saw it on another web site.

  • This song seems a lot like the movie The Day The Earth Stood Still

  • wow, it's awsome.

  • great!

  • you can hear this by calling this number on the year zero cd

  • Good job on this one, this very well could have been am official video.

  • LOLOLOL.

    That beginning part happened to me.

    She said that she hacked my computer. :P

    And I'm starting to believe it.

    Weird shit has been going on with my comp.

  • kewl vid!

  • I agree with the comment below me.

    The warning can be perceived as a higher power warning us about our downward spiral acts.

    The wall is about self entrapment, and seclusion..otherwise great movie mate.

  • i thought it was awesome, until i saw the wall footage. i mean its bad enough to use footage from that movie for a NIN video, because the music just doesnt fit, but you also still had the sound from the movie.

  • I am so afraid of your country!!!!!

  • Don't worry, our country isn't even

    controlled by US. Dark forces are at

    work here.... "smiles behind the glass"...

  • ooh! i recieved the number! it was creepy!

  • 3:46 - My head fell off my neck.

    Nicely done.

  • That was awsome man. :)

  • Oh nos, I threw away that number. D:

  • its, 1-866-445-6580

  • Thank you.

  • Hey, another one cool vid! Try to watch my work, maybe you like it. Peace! Reg

  • *shudders at seeing the presence* nice video!

  • f*king amazing video! give this man a job! well done :) :) 5*s
